2 part thread: how big are dalmatian platty fry generally, and pics

[spit.fire]

im wondering if my larger guppies will be big enough to eat the dalmatian platty fry. My larger guppies are approximatly 1 3/4" - 2"



Newest addition to my community tank




Baby tank




Pretty sure her eggo is preggo

I believe your platy (Xiphophorus maculatus) is actually a molly (Poecillia vellifera). Adult guppies are capable of eating fry, however mollies tend to be larger than most livebearer fry. As long as there is sufficient plant cover, some will survive. Good luck with the growout.
